I don't think any tariffs against the US should be retaliatory; just protectionist at best, but otherwise do nothing.

NDP Councillors had better reign Eby in before he redlines their support.
Reiterating that this is another nail in the party's coffin in province. I will be voting Green next election based on Eby's policies as of late.

Wow, Carney is not only calling POTUS bluff but seems to be baiting him. Hope it works in our favour.🤞
“Canada cannot solve all the world’s problems, but we can show that another way is possible: that the arc of history isn’t destined to be warped towards authoritarianism and exclusion, it can still bend towards progress and justice...
"Canada doesn't live because of the United States," the prime minister shot back in a nearly 30-minute address. "Canada thrives because we are Canadian."

I kind of hate everything about the WEF & to me, PM Carney is a huge disappointment on multiple fronts, BUT I kind of have to admit that this speech is kinda fire & I'm really glad someone pointed out that the emperor is wearing no clothes & nations need to get off their asses & do something about it.
"The power of the less powerful begins with honesty."

CW: Taxation
Why do I keep saying that landowners are the ones that should pay higher taxes?
It's because it doesn't make sense to me that land ownership should be respected for "not paying into the system".
Like, if you want to play this silly game that little boys play of territorialism in elementary school playgrounds, where they draw imaginary boundaries, then by all means do so.
But for people who didn't consent to it, you gotta have a good reason why the respect for imaginary boundaries should be enforced.
To make it really easy: don't tax improvements; just land ownership.

Petition in #Canada to reunite Canadian citizen Sophia Papp with her spouse, Zain Haq, through his admission into Canada.
Mr Haq has been deported for nonviolent #climate #activism. His actions were consistent with those of Steven Guilbeault, Bob Rae & Elizabeth May.
Also, Marc Miller, acknowledged the merit of Haq's case during his time as Minister.

Another advisory body in Canada finds Canadians support electoral reform. The movement gains momentum.

CW: Canadian politics and immigration
RE: https://techhub.social/@manlycoffee/115514636004092575
(Re-posting, but different, because I just found out today that my server supports quote-boosting.)
I wrote this parable to criticize Canada's immigration situation.
During heightened immigration, whenever I'd raise concerns that we're bringing in too many people without offering the proper support structures, I'd get accused of being a xenophobe.
Fast forward to a housing crisis, and increased youth unemployment rate, now people have unfortunately become jaded against immigrants, even though newcomers do not deserve the hate.
That, and the government has now slammed on the breaks on immigration.
This cut in immigration numbers is bad.
